Any duas for an operation?

 

Smile and toothbrush

asalam alikum,

It's been a long time since my wisdom teeth began killing my jaws, and they make a clicking sound every time I open and close them. Now the dentists have told me I need to get 4 of my wisdom teeth out because I'm getting an infection with it all the time.  The top two were fine but the bottom two are killing me almost everyday.

The doctors at greater Manchester hospital have told me that when they remove my wisdom teeth there is a chance that my tongue and lips could stay numb permanently. This is scaring me because when they put an injection in the gum it stays dead and you can't feel a thing and I don't want to feel like that forever.

Just help me by praying for me and if there is any chance, could you find a dua that could help me? I am feeling very  scared, because I got two kids and my parents are going abroad in February and we need to move into a new house.  I want to celebrate Milad for our Prophet (SAWS) at my house, and there's so much on the "to do" list but I don't want to stay paralyzed around my mouth if the operation goes wrong.  🙁  I just need your dua's.

I'm going to have the operation on the 24th january 2013.

thanks bro's and sisters,  see you all soon.

  2. Salaams,

    In shaa Allah there will be no complications with your operation. Any medical procedure or even taking medicine carries the risk of side effects of complications. Doctors are required by law to inform patients of the risks for any procedure they are about to undertake, no matter how low the chances of something happening.

    Having the wisdom teeth surgically removed to prevent infection is extremely common. Many adults have their wisdom teeth removed after they erupt. In fact, I was told several years ago that I would need to have mine surgically removed from the gum even though they hadn't erupted yet, strictly because the risk of abcess/infection was there. Since then, only one of my wisdom teeth ever fully erupted, and another one "half" erupted. The other two never came through, but I never had the recommended surgery simply because of cost. Alhamdulillah, I have not had any problems with them and it's been over a decade since that was suggested.

    However, you have already been having pain and so I think you should go ahead with the surgery as recommended. I personally feel that the risk of you having an issue with lifetime numbness is rather low, so do your best not to become consumed by the anxiety it's causing. I would also just like to say that it was always my understanding that for major extractions like that, a local anesthesia (such as a numbing injection) is NOT used; instead a patient is sedated for the extraction with general anesthesia. Perhaps if you are still worried you can ask the dentist to sedate you instead of giving you an injection? It's an option, at least.

  3. Assalamu'alaikum destinyinparadise,

    Here are some du'as from the Sunnah:

    أَذْهِبِ الْبَأْسَ رَبَّ النَّاسِ وَاشْفِ أَنْتَ الشَّافِي لَا شِفَاءَ إِلَّا شِفَاؤُكَ شِفَاءٌ لَا يُغَادِرُ سَقَمَاً
    "O Lord of the people, remove this pain and cure it, You are the one who cures and there is no one besides You who can cure, grant such a cure that no illness remains".

    اللهُمَّ لا سَهْلَ إلا مَا جَعَلتَهُ سَهْلا وَ أنتَ تَجْعَلُ الحزْنَ إذا شِئْتَ سَهْلا
    ‘O Allah! There is nothing easy except what You make easy, and You make the difficult easy if it be Your Will’

    Drink Zam Zam before you go to the hospital, with the niyyah of success, because “The water of Zamzam is for whatever purpose it is drunk for.” (ibn Majah)

  4. asalamu alaikum,

    i also had my wisdom tooth out fews year ago, they injected me also in my gums. dont worry, everything will be alright inshallah...

    ma salama

  5. This is quite irrelevant but celebrating the prophet's birthday is a bidah and shouldn't be celebrated.

  6. Walaikum salam sister,
    You said;

    The doctors at greater Manchester hospital have told me that when they remove my wisdom teeth there is a chance that my tongue and lips could stay numb permanently. This is scaring me because when they put an injection in the gum it stays dead and you can't feel a thing and I don't want to feel like that forever.

    You really need to double check about this with your dentist at the hospital. It cannot be permanent numbness. The reason I say this is because I had one of my teeth removed as well as one needed filling with crown. They sure do give an injection to numb so that patient doesn't feel pain during the procedure but it is only for couple of hours. After that you will feel some pain and possibly suffer with mild temperature (only if tooth is removed) followed by some weakness. They will advise you not to do any physical activity, as in, jogging, exercise etc for some time but that's about it. Also, it doesn't hinder ones ability to talk, read, eat or drink at all.

    Please double check with your doctor and jot down all the questions/concerns you might have and ask the dentist on your appointment. Good luck with the treatment:).

  7. this is irrelivent but im quite young and im about to have an injection the thing is they wont tell me when because the school believes if they tell the kids they will take the days off. but i know that if i dont take the last one of these injections i could become ill or sometthing along that line. it could be 2morrow or next week many people are guessing its on the 11th of march but im not sure. i am very stressed out and concerned it usually hurts me alot.
    any one have any solutions or duas or anything to help i dont know when my injection is but i keeep thinking its gonna pop up out of the bloom and i wont be ready for it. 🙁

    • As-salamu alaykum. Nobody likes getting shots (injections). But it's one of those things you just have to do. Try to comfort yourself with the thought that the pain lasts for only a second, then it's gone. Maybe you can reward yourself afterwards with a sweet, or something else that you like.

      May Allah make it easy for you.
